Abstract
A replaceable positioning tip can be removably fixedly coupled to a distal end of the trip arm. The positioning tip can define a tip nail guide groove having a proximal portion extending at a first angle substantially parallel to a nail driver axis and a distal end tapering at a second angle. The tapered distal end can be encompassed by a thin-walled portion. A nail tip lifter can be coupled to the rear nail guide housing for pivotable movement between a first position adjacent the positioning tip and a second position away from the positioning tip. The nail tip lifter can define a lifter nail guide groove extending from its inception at a proximal end to a distal end. A biasing member can be positioned between the rear nail guide housing and the nail tip lifter to bias the nail tip lifter toward the first position.
